During the Qin and Han dynasties, the township pavilion system was also a very important local institution. It's just that the township is the township, and the pavilion is the pavilion, which is a two-level institution.

Hanshu: Township 6,622, Pavilion 29,635.

The township has three elders and elders in the township, who help to educate the township, and the township is autonomous and stable.

And the pavilion, ten miles for a pavilion, the Qin and Han dynasties pavilion set up very extensively, but it is mainly responsible for local security.

Township, Li, and Ting, the three local organizations in the Qin and Han dynasties had their own emphasis, and even did not belong to each other. Luo Cheng re-established the pavilion, but in fact it was different from the pavilion of the Han Dynasty.

Now the pavilion he wants to rebuild is built at the township level, and it is equivalent to combining the functions of the original township and the pavilion.

"The township pavilion chief, patrol inspection, pawn sign, signatory, joint defense captain, and militia captain are all designated as officials, and foreign officials, joint defense teams, and militia defense teams must all be served by retired soldiers. The pavilion chief, inspection, pawn and book signing are selected from the county officials. It can be stipulated that those who perform well in the township can be promoted to Cao Zuo, or recorder, who has an examination every year, a major examination every three years, and an excellent examination in all four examinations. ”

Luo Cheng also added a special sentence that the officials of these township pavilions enjoy the same salary treatment as the county Cao Zuo.

Previously, the emperor had set a system, and after the officials passed the assessment, those who performed well could be promoted after completing the examination. Officials have nine grades, eighteen ranks, and thirty ranks, and officials also have nine grades and eighteen ranks, when promoted to the top of the officials, they can also participate in the selection examination of the officials, and those who pass may also be appointed as officials.

Therefore, the official system of Great Qin is different from before, although the previous dynasties were not completely incomprehensible to officials, but the boundary between officials and officials is becoming more and more obvious, and it is more and more difficult to cross, but now this dynasty has completely broken this line, leaving a passage, and every official has a chance to cross.

Such a change is, of course, also related to the fact that the emperor of this dynasty and the founding princes of this dynasty are mainly from the poor.

And now, the emperor wants to increase the number of officials at the township level, and add six officials to a township, which is a regular official, compared to those who can't even enter the flow of officials, I don't know how many times stronger, and still enjoy the county Cao Zuo level treatment.

And the subordinates below the six officials of the township pavilion belong to the servants.

Luo Cheng, who was born at the bottom, knew very well that even if the previous imperial court said that the imperial power did not go to the countryside, it only went to the county level. But in fact, although there are only a few officials in a county office, there are many officials, which is very amazing.

Rather than being unclear, it is better to formally send them to the township level, set up a regular organization, and clarify the ministry. Otherwise, at the county level, many things can't be handled, and they will be confused officials.

If you want Luo Cheng to be a catcher, you can have one vote under your hands, and there are ten catchers in a fast shift. There are also three classes in the yamen, and there are six rooms in addition.

The officials of each imperial court are actually equivalent to the head of a department, and there are a lot of people under their hands, but the imperial court does not give them salaries and food, but they need these people to do things, so they can only seek rent with power, and engage in collecting color and ashes, and in the end the burden is actually spread on the heads of the people.

Because of this, Luo Cheng simply pierced this layer of paper, and the imperial court restored it from two rooms to six rooms at the county level, and officially included the three classes in the establishment, and now the township has also set up a pavilion and set up six officials.

If you pull people into the imperial system, you can be supervised.

Some dynasties boast of the lack of officials, thinking that this is a great benevolent government, but I don't know that this has no positive effect at all, after all, a court has a total of 35,000 officials, and it has to manage a population of 350 million, how can this be managed well.

Be scientific and reasonable.

You can't ask the horses to run and don't let them graze, because if you do that, you will only get chaos and disorder.

It is not a good policy to completely leave the countryside to the big clan households in the township, and it must be led by the imperial court, and the township sages and gentry and large clan households assist in management, which is reasonable and benign.

The imperial court will add six or seven thousand new township pavilions at once, and increase the number of officials by thirty or forty thousand, if it is in other imperial courts, I am afraid that it will immediately attract a voice of opposition.

But Wei Zheng, as the prime minister, did not object, he knew that in fact, even if the imperial court did not set up this township pavilion, there were actually no fewer officials in a county.

Now that the township pavilion is set up and the officials are dispatched, in fact, there will not be many more officials in the county, because these township pavilion officials will also be sent from the county to undertake the errand tasks of the county government.

It's just that now it is delegated to the township level, and each pavilion guards its own district, and its responsibilities are more obvious, and it also has its own division of labor with the county government.

Relatively speaking, the number of officials has not changed, but the mastery of the township will increase.

This is actually the difference between three and four and four and three, but some people like to look good on the surface.

The township pavilion's pawn is actually equivalent to a local court, and the civil lawsuit in the township can be tried by the pawn first, and then reported to the county for review, which is actually filtered by the township.

It not only speeds up the efficiency of township processing, but also reduces the burden on the county.

Moreover, since the pawn is stationed in the township, then he will have a better understanding of the human relations in the township, and the trial of ordinary litigation cases will definitely be better and fairer.

In the event of some major disputes or criminal cases, although they have to be handed over to the county law and Cao to deal with them, they will eventually be handled by the county lieutenant and the county magistrate, but the township pavilion can also understand the case at the first time, grasp the evidence, and control public opinion.

Luo Cheng turned over and got on his horse, his eyes pointing to the west.

Compared to the problems found along the way, there is an even greater challenge waiting for him in the west.

Although the Western Turks were only a branch sent by the Turkic Khan's court, they were already able to fight against the Eastern Turks many years ago, and even Datou Apo once counterattacked the eastern steppe to compete for the position of the Great Khan.

Although it was defeated later, after these years of steady development, the strength of the Western Turks was also extremely strong.

Even in the past few years, they have rubbed the two world-class empires in the west, the Persian Empire and the Luo Cheng Empire, on the ground, seriously threatening the two families.

The Persians originally formed an alliance with the Western Turks to destroy the powerful countries of the Afghan generation in later generations, and said that half of the family was good, but the spoils were unevenly distributed, so the Western Turks simply united with the Luo Cheng Empire, the sworn enemy of Persia, and the Persians were eager to die.

But after turning his head, the Western Turks cleaned up Rome several times and seized a lot of territory.

Therefore, it can be said that although the Western Turks have not made waves in the Central Plains for many years, he is in the west, but he is full of robbers and horse thieves, and he is still very strong, making the two old empires lose their temper.

Now that he is going to intervene in Tuyuhun, he obviously sees the strength of Great Qin, and seeing that the Eastern Turks are defeated by the Qin army, he is also worried that the Qin army will come to fight for the Western Regions, and now he is just taking the lead.

As for Tibet, it will also be a fierce enemy.

Now, the first battle between the three has chosen Tuyuhun.

Whoever can seize Tuyuhun will be able to occupy the initiative in the future.

For Great Qin, if Tuyuhun is not controlled, it will be difficult to stabilize the narrow passage of the Hexi Corridor, let alone the troops going straight out of Yangguan into the Western Regions. The key to fighting for the Western Regions lies in the Hexi Corridor, and the key to controlling the Hexi Corridor lies in taking Tuyuhun.

For the Tibetans, taking Tuyuhun will make them stronger and get more people and tribes, not to mention that if they can obtain the rare agricultural land of the Hehuang Valley, it will provide them with huge grain and grass support for controlling Tuyuhun.

As for the Western Turks, they don't even need to take Tuyuhun, as long as they support Murong Ke to restore the country, with Tuyuhun on their side, the Qin army will not be able to leave the Hexi Corridor without worry, for them, this is to attack instead of defend.

Great Qin is bound to recover the Western Regions, gold is worn in a hundred battles, and no one can stop Daqin's determination if he does not break Loulan's vows.

On the contrary, Luo Cheng is not interested in the plateau of Tubo now, it is too far away and too remote, and the cost of conquering it is too high, and it is not on the emperor's list of conquests for the time being.
